Journey to the West: Sun Wukong's Advice System Chapter 844 - 515: The Remnant Soul and the Reason

"You’ve mistaken for soone else; I am not your senior brother! I am not Mr. Lu Yang." He Yuan whispered.

"You can fool the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning, deceive Chu Ming, but you can’t fool . Senior Brother, you were the one who led into the path, who taught cultivation. I am more familiar with your aura than anyone else. And that jade slip, I’m certain you fabricated it right after the Blood-Clad sought you out."

Qing Lan’s tone was firm, her eyes fixed on He Yuan, staring intently after she finished speaking.

He Yuan gave a bitter smile.

"Your speculation is not without reason. However, Mr. Lu Yang is , but I am not Mr. Lu Yang. I was rely lucky, having integrated one fragnt of Mr. Lu Yang’s soul, which made who I am today. It’s not wrong for you to regard as Mr. Lu Yang!"

This ti, it was Qing Lan’s turn to be stunned.

Soul fragnts?

Qing Lan didn’t quite believe He Yuan’s explanation; she quickly ford a hand seal, an arcane power enveloping He Yuan.

After a mont, Qing Lan’s expression changed repeatedly.

"How can this be... There actually is a part of Senior Brother’s soul fragnt inside you!?"

As fellow disciples, Qing Lan and Lu Yang were very close.

Lu Yang had strict requirents for the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning and Chu Ming.

But towards Qing Lan, he was very affectionate.

It was based on this that Qing Lan identified He Yuan as Lu Yang.

But now she realized that He Yuan indeed wasn’t truly Lu Yang.

Soul fragnts!

That is the state where a soul fragnt appears after a being has perished— either the True Spirit was severely damaged or ripped apart.

But what kind of person was Senior Brother?

After Master’s fall, who could have torn his True Spirit into fragnts?

Qing Lan couldn’t understand.

"I possess a fragnt of Mr. Lu Yang’s soul, and have inherited so of his mories. If you truly believe that I am Lu Yang, then it is acceptable." He Yuan sighed.

"No, you are not Senior Brother." Qing Lan shook her head.

The hopeful light in her eyes dimd at this mont.

In her heart, both Master and Senior Brother held irreplaceable and significant places.

"What really happened back then? Did Master truly perish because of the Heart Demon?" Qing Lan continued to ask.

She sought an answer.

During these long years, she wandered aimlessly, sealing the Heart Demon, sealing the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning.

Even at the cost of abandoning her own body, all to find an answer.

She simply didn’t believe that a re Heart Demon could have caused Master’s demise.

She had witnessed Master’s greatness firsthand.

So, she did not accept this reason.

"Actually, you are correct! Master did not perish because of the Heart Demon. In fact, Master did not perish at all!"

As He Yuan’s words fell.

In that instant, Qing Lan’s expression first froze, then a gleam of joy burst from her eyes, followed by the glimr of tears.

"Master did not pass away! Master, being such a powerful Dao practitioner, could never perish!" Qing Lan muttered incessantly.

The little bit of faith from the past had sustained her to this point.

Now, hearing He Yuan’s reply, Qing Lan felt her persistence had finally paid off.

Bitterness had ended, and sweetness had co!

"Master did not perish, then where did he... go?" Qing Lan quickly asked again.

"Master... went ho..." He Yuan exhaled deeply.

Before Qing Lan could ask further, He Yuan continued.

"I carry a fragnt of Mr. Lu Yang’s soul, all I know is that Master went ho. As for which ho, I do not know. At that ti, to help Master return ho,

Mr. Lu Yang sought the Blood-Clad, intending to borrow a crucial item. Thus, he imprisoned the Blood-Clad, planning to release him after completing the task.

But an accident occurred, damaging Mr. Lu Yang’s True Spirit, and one fragnt was found by , and it awakened."

"Ho!" Qing Lan murmured in low tones, then she suddenly looked up.

"I believe your words. When Master was around, he often looked into the distance, saying he did not belong here, not to this world, and that he would return ho... I once asked Master where his ho was, but he was always evasive about it!"

At the beginning, Qing Lan harbored great doubt about He Yuan’s words and He Yuan’s identity.

She even suspected He Yuan was lying.

So she kept testing him.

Until He Yuan ntioned going ho and explained why the Blood-Clad turned against Senior Brother.

The reason seed reasonably plausible.

"How can I save Senior Brother, how can I obtain Master’s whereabouts? What about the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning and Chu Ming, did Master give any instructions? And where is our Fifth Junior Brother?" Qing Lan’s eyes flashed with a slight sharpness.

"I do not know where Master is. To save Mr. Lu Yang, you must find the soul fragnts and piece them together." He Yuan paused slightly.

"The Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning was born with a rebellious nature. Without Master and Mr. Lu Yang’s suppression, rebellion is bound to happen, and he will covet Master’s remains. But Chu Ming has always been smart. Master once said that if he focused his intellect on cultivation, he could be the first among us to break into the Dao realm."

"But Chu Ming shouldn’t be like this. Even if he had so small sches, he shouldn’t dare to have such ambitions. The reason for his change, I do not know, and I do not understand. As for our Fifth Junior Brother, if my guess is correct, he is in the Wildlands..."
